AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The most recent MOT on 4 July 2025 recorded a pass at 105,689 miles, indicating the vehicle is presently road‑worthy. Apart from an anomalous failed entry on the same date that listed no defects, the record shows a consistent passing trend, suggesting a stable maintenance pattern rather than any deterioration. Mileage has risen from 98,942 miles on 22 June 2022 to 105,689 miles on 4 July 2025, an average increase of roughly 2,300 miles per year. Over the ten‑year life span this equates to about 10,500 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage for a van of this age. No abrupt jumps or prolonged gaps appear in the log, implying regular driving rather than periods of neglect or excessive short‑term mileage spikes. Given the clean MOT history, a prospective buyer should still scrutinise consumable wear that the tests do not capture. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, verify brake pad and disc thickness, and feel for any play in the front and rear suspension bushes or coil springs. A visual check for corrosion on the chassis, exhaust system integrity, and any signs of fluid leaks will confirm that the vehicle’s structural health matches the documented pass results. Finally, confirm the cause of the 2025 failed entry despite the absence of recorded faults; an administrative error is plausible, yet it warrants a brief verification of the vehicle’s documentation and a quick functional test of the brakes, steering, and lights before finalising purchase.
